Amazon Music

I'm really excited about this. Amazon Music is part of Get Blue, a coalition with @Water.org bringing safe water access to millions worldwide. Nearly 2 billion people lack access to safe drinking water, and through our Stream It Forward campaign, your everyday listening can help change that.  Here's how it works: every time you play a participating artist's REDISCOVER playlist on Amazon Music, Amazon donates $1 to Water.org. No subscription required, just hit play. You can also purchase exclusive blue vinyl records from participating artists, available on the Get Blue storefront on Amazon, with a portion of every purchase supporting Water.org. This campaign makes it easy it is to support a great cause while enjoying music from some amazing artists. I'm personally loving Dylan Gossett’s REDISCOVER playlist right now. Check out the Get Blue campaign page for more ways you can support! https://lnkd.in/g-mmn2hx

We're excited to share a look back at our latest Act One onboarding program, where 60+ leaders from across Amazon Entertainment came together in Culver City for two days of immersion, inspiration, and meaningful connection! Together, we are cultivating a more connected, collaborative future across entertainment. 

At Amazon Music, we believe music has the power to do more than entertain—it can create opportunities, inspire creativity, and strengthen communities. Recently during Sueños Music Festival weekend in Chicago, Amazon Music, Amazon Community Engagement, and Fuerza Regida came together to invest $100,000 in two incredible organizations: the Puerto Rican Arts Alliance and the National Museum of Mexican Art. This investment will help expand access to arts education, creative resources, and artist development opportunities for young people across Chicago's Latino community. We're proud to celebrate Latin music not only on stage, but through meaningful investments that help support the next generation of artists, creators, and cultural leaders. Thank you to Fuerza Regida, Amazon Community Engagement, the Puerto Rican Arts Alliance, and the National Museum of Mexican Art for helping make this moment possible. #AmazonMusic #SueñosFestival #LatinMusic #CommunityImpact #ArtsEducation #Chicago #FuerzaRegida

We are deeply grateful to Amazon Music and Fuerza Regida for their investment in Chicago’s Latino arts community during Sueños Music Festival weekend. This support represents more than a contribution. It is an investment in young artists, cultural preservation, and equitable access to music and arts education across our city. Through this partnership, the Puerto Rican Arts Alliance will continue expanding opportunities that empower the next generation of creatives and cultural leaders. We are equally proud to stand alongside the National Museum of Mexican Art in this shared commitment to expanding access to arts education and uplifting the next generation of Latino artists and cultural leaders. Special thank you to Ramon Fragoso, Jennefer Meléndez, Ian Conyers, and Julian Federle for making this all possible!

NBC’s “The Effect: Bad Bunny” explores the cultural and global impact of one of the most influential artists of our time, and the moments that helped bring Puerto Rico to the world stage.   Amazon Music was invited to participate in the documentary to reflect on the collaboration with Bad Bunny last September, when a historic livestream closed out his Puerto Rico residency and connected fans around the world to the energy, culture, and pride of the island. The initiative brought together music, storytelling, and community impact to spotlight Puerto Rico through a shared global experience.   Rocío Guerrero Colomo, Director of Music, Latin-Iberia at Amazon Music, shares perspective in the documentary on how this Puerto Rico-rooted collaboration combined music, community support, and cultural storytelling to bring global attention to the island and create meaningful, lasting impact.   As attention builds around Benito’s performance this weekend, the documentary offers important context on the journey and values behind the moment.   At Amazon Music, we remain focused on building with purpose and honoring the cultures that shape the music.   “The Effect: Bad Bunny” is available to stream now: https://lnkd.in/gHhJugaU
